Kids

Russ has been out of town this week and both kids caught a cold. Hannah cries anytime snot runs down her nose and Parker's been fighting a fever. We've been chilling at home and watching movies and snuggling on the couch. They've been really good and have wanted to go to bed at 6:00 each night.

Today we decided we'd go for a drive and get out of the house. We first drove to Sonic and got jr. sundaes (probably not the best for colds but it sure made Hannah and Parker's day). Parker wanted to drive where the reindeer lived which meant about 10 minutes from our house. We did the big loop and spotted the deer along the road and had a nice discussion on what dusk meant until Hannah spoke . . .

Parker: Dusk is when the deer like to come out.

Hannah: When, when the deer come out, we'll shoot them!

I was shocked. Her little voice was so cute as she said "we'll shoot them." I then had to explain we don't want to shoot the deer and continued our drive pointing out the nice deer. I guess "shooting" the bear in the movie Fox and the Hound really stuck with her.
